[QUOTE="lexwaldez, post: 1658930, member: 9817"] That game was basically over 5 minutes in. The disturbing bit is how teams still have our number... Virginia almost scored at will with our defense giving up huge chunks of yards. Any team that watches UTSA or Virginia tape will be able to absolutely destroy us. Those passes over the middle... all day every play. On the other hand, it was interesting to watch a confident, competent team play in Virginia. That basically is what we'd like to look like one day; I don't mean an up tempo spread. I mean that Virginia looked like they had a game plan, the players knew what to do, they made plays and they racked up an easy victory. Virginia looked really well coached. We looked a little Keystone cops. It wasn't a good look. Going to be a long, sad year I'm afraid. Without CJ Hart, our defense looks so slow. Our secondary can't take that kind of abuse with the line getting zero pressure. The offense... we're not good at playing from behind. We're not good at third down. So... Coach B's third year. It's going to take a while. [/QUOTE]
